Summary
There is a poem towards the end of the Sandman comics that haunted me from the very first reading.
I've always been so sure there must be more, but if there are, I know not where they came from.
Unless I write them myself.

When Dream cannot shake the unwelcome advances of a man dressed all in white who follows him onto the London Underground, he hurries onto the first train he sees, and prevails upon the kindness of a stranger to help warn his pursuer off.
It goes better than expected.

Summary
It is a truth universally acknowledged by anyone with any magical inclinations - that you did not fuck with the Endless. Not that anyone has seen them in centuries, with the exception of a few, but they are Not To Be Fucked With by every possible measure. It's a known fact - no matter the creature asking - be it fae, draconic, undead, or otherwise. To court the audience of an Endless is to court something far worse.
Hob never was the wisest dragon, and he freely admitted that.
UPDATE: Epilogue added!

Summary
Hob should know by now not to go along with Death’s schemes, but here he is at a masquerade ball for her baby brother. He’s never met him, but Death's told Hob that he was indeed that pale lord that left the White Horse in a stink just before Death sauntered up and gave Hob immortality.

An alternate first meeting with romance, dramatic disputes, vampiric flare, and classical music.

Summary
The last person Dream expects to see in Burgess' basement is Hob Gadling, who has apparently been asked to consult on the restoration of the historic manor. He is pleased when his old acquaintance helps free him without a second thought, despite their past squabble, but he is horrified to realise that breaking the binding circle does nothing to return his powers to him, and that he cannot return to the Dreaming after having been released from his cage.
Weak, confused, and distressingly human, he consents to being taken back to Hob's home to be cared for until he can regain his strength. When he falls asleep that night (which he should never have had need for), he finally finds his way back to his palace, only to find someone else sitting on his throne, wearing his ruby, and claiming his name as her own — Dream of the Endless.

Summary
Dream is given a second chance. Terrified by loneliness and drowning in humanity, he goes to find the only fixed point he has ever known. Hob Gadling.
Dream found himself explaining everything, the words tumbling out of him in a halting confession. The Kindly Ones, the choice to end or change. His siblings’ intervention.
“They… found a compromise. This form, it is mortal-adjacent. I must eat, sleep and breathe. I feel the cold. I grow weary.” He looked down at his own hands, pale against the dark fabric of his trousers. “I am, in all ways that matter now, very much like you, Hob Gadling. My body will not age. It cannot die. Unless I choose to accept my sister’s gift. I am… suspended. Between what I was and what men are.”

Summary
There is a new temple in London.
This is not so unusual. Dream has been…away, as his sister says, for over a century. Even had he not been, he does not map the Waking so thoroughly as to always see these things when they start. Places of love, of devotion, spring up from time to time. He leaves them be; they are not, generally speaking, his business.
What is unusual is that this one is shaped like a pub, and it is very much his business.
Dream contemplates The New Inn as he approaches.
Hob’s actions while Dream is away have consequences neither of them anticipated.

Summary
There are twenty-seven wards on the Great Bridge that leads to the castle of the Dreaming, meant to keep out errant dreams and dreamers alike. One night while he is sleeping, Hob Gadling walks straight through all of them.
Fortunately, Hob thinks that everything he sees — Dream included — is an invention of his own sleeping mind. Dream sees no reason to challenge that, especially with the flowers springing up in Dream’s step that he can neither control nor explain.

Summary
It’s 1959, and Hob Gadling is working at a London auction house, amazing his colleagues with his uncanny knowledge of art and artifacts from the 14th century on. When he gets the assignment to catalogue a family library at a place called Fawney Rig, he looks forward to a working vacation in the country. What he finds is a house with a preternatural chill where odd disturbances happen daily, an ornate carved door with a secret clearly hidden behind it, and visions of his mysterious stranger every time he turns around.
